[1] I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.
\n[2] Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.
\n[3] Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.
\n[4] Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.
\n[5] I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.
\n[6] If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.
\n[7] If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.
\n[8] Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples.
\n[9] As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love.
\n[10] If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father’s commandments, and abide in his love.
\n[11] These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.
\n[12] This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.
\n[13] Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
\n[14] Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.
\n[15] Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.
\n[16] Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
